HELICALOHM R MULTI-TURN POTENTIOMETER

(Precision Multi-turn, Wirewound & Hybrid Element)

There are two kinds in SAKAE Helicalohm Potentiometers helically wound inside a sealed pipe.
with a wirewound resistive element. One is Model HD Both of them equally offer high resolution, excellent
Series which are an original device consisting of a resistive reliability and long life. SAKAE has expanded to the
element wound helically on a drum surface and a slider of production of hybrid resistive element potentiometers and
which contact is made around the resistance drum and the this element has now been incorporated into Model HP
other is Model HP Series which are formed with a slider Series with small size.
travelling along the interior surface of a resistive element

S46HD Series with LIMIT-SWITCHES

Special 46HD Series Helicalohm potentiometer with incorporated Limit-Switch can automatically control the circuit. It
can conveniently be used for minifying the instrument in which this model is employed.
The construction of the Limit-Switch is given in the below figure and its function limit, either upper or lower, or to
either side, can be freely determined according to customer's requirement.
Its capacity is 5 A, 125V.A.C. (or 2.5A, 250V.A.C.)
This model is most recommended to all kinds of automatic control equipment.

Note. Functioning position of Limit-Switch...

In case of this model being coupled to servo-motor, an over-rotation of the servo-motor due to its inertia, after the power source being
OFF, may sometimes break the Helicalohm Pot. unless an adequate precaution is made. In order to avoid such failure, two kinds of the
Helicalohm Potentiometer with limit-switch are offered: one is an inscription type (a) Iimit-switch having its function position slightly this
side from the stopper of Helicalohm Pot. and the other is a circumscription type (b) for which a special overtravel is prepared in the
Helicalohm Pot.

Features of Hybrid resistive element

The hybrid resistive element type potentiometer is the newest type potentiometer, in which the merits of a wirewound
resistive element are combined with those of a film type resistive element.

Main Features Construction

Good stability of resistance value
Good resistance temperature coefficient
Essentially infinite resolution
Less resistance variation
Long life expectancy 10,000,000 shaft revolutions

By using most modern plastic engineering technology as well as our patented designs, number of parts can be
reduced steeply by about 50% almost without any degradation in all performances and by that means, the total cost-
down by 30 to 50% is achieved in comparison with similar multi-turn potentiometers of the same diameter.
